Abstract The Alicante’s province, located mostly in Júcar´s Water Basin in Spain, deals with water stress and land development since 1980s. The provisions about climate change in the area suggest that water stress will increase, so it is necessary to integrated it with spatial planning. This issues is also happens in Caraguatatuba, northern coast of São Paulo State in Brazil. There are planning tools developed for assessment the water stress, as Flooding´s Risk Management Plan and Alert and Drought Period Special Plan in Júcar´s Water Basin and Water´s Safety Plan for Caraguatatuba. The main of this paper is to analyze the spanish tools to identify a commum structure for replicated it. Other main is, by the spanish practice, to identify opportunities for improvement the water stress management in Caraguatatuba. As results there are procedures in water stress planning, which deals with land use directives.

Abstract: Evaluating factors that may influence the nose dimensions and, therefore, contribute to the singularity of a person, is important for obtaining a precise facial reconstruction (FR) in forensic anthropology. Thus, the aim in this study was to evaluate the influence of sex, skeletal class, and facial type on nose dimensions of Brazilian individuals using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans. CBCT images of 54 males and 67 females were classified according to skeletal class (class I, II, or III) and facial type (brachycephalic, dolichocephalic and mesocephalic). Linear and angular measurements of the nose were performed using the CS 3D Imaging software. The measurements obtained for males and females were compared by one-way ANOVA. Two-way ANOVA was used to compare the measurements in the different skeletal classes and facial types. Significance level was set at 5%. All linear measurements were greater in males (p < 0.05); the angular measurements, however, did not differ between sexes (p > 0.05). Linear and angular measurements of class III males were significantly different from the other classes; the same was observed for the angular measurements in females (p < 0.05). Regarding facial types, some linear measurements were significantly greater in dolichocephalics males (p < 0.05). For females, there was no influence of facial type (p > 0.05), except for the nasal convexity angle. Nose dimensions differed in specific points among different skeletal classes and facial types, and there was sexual dimorphism in all linear nose dimensions. This information may be applicable for nose reconstructions, allowing more reliable FR.

RESUMO A implementação da Diretiva da Água 2000/60/EC demandou a articulação entre a gestão da água e a gestão territorial na comunidade europeia, fomentando a integração entre diferentes níveis de planejamento, como o regional, aplicado na escala da bacia hidrográfica, e o local, aplicado em âmbito municipal. Na Escócia, a integração entre os diferentes setores e escalas de planejamento é conduzida pela aplicação da Avaliação Ambiental Estratégica (AAE). Neste artigo, foram comparados os procedimentos e etapas de elaboração de dois instrumentos de planejamento territorial realizados para a mesma área: o Plano de Bacia Hidrográfica da Escócia para 2009/2015 e sua AAE e o Plano de Desenvolvimento Local de Glasgow para 2010/2015 e sua respectiva AAE. Como resultado, as diferentes características dos instrumentos de planejamento analisados influenciam nos objetivos e no nível de detalhamento utilizado pelas AAEs, cujos resultados conduziram gradativamente à integração dos planos. Como conclusão, o uso da AAE mostrou-se efetivo para propiciar a integração dos diferentes instrumentos de planejamento, atendendo aos requisitos da Diretiva da Água.

ABSTRACT The Water Directive 2000/60/EC regards the water basin management plans integrated in spatial plans in the European community, affecting the regional and local planning. In Scotland, the Strategic Environmental Assessment is used to combine distinct sectors and planning scales. This paper compared the procedures and steps of spatial planning for the same area: Scottish River Basin Management Plan 2009/2015 and Local Development Plan for Glasgow 2010/2015, with their Strategic Environmental Assessment as well. As a result, features of each planning tools affect the aims and details of Strategic Environmental Assessment, which conducts gradually the planning integration. The practice of Strategic Environmental Assessment is useful regarding the Water Directive objectives.

RESUMO A conservação dos recursos hídricos demanda ações de controle do uso e da ocupação do solo, influenciando instrumentos de gestão territorial nas escalas regional e local. O objetivo deste artigo foi analisar os instrumentos de planejamento territorial aplicados no Brasil, tendo como estudo de caso o litoral norte do Estado de São Paulo. A metodologia é baseada na análise da articulação dos dispositivos legais, notadamente a Política Nacional dos Recursos Hídricos, o Estatuto da Cidade, o Plano de Bacia Hidrográfica, o Zoneamento Ecológico-Econômico e o Plano Diretor Municipal. Como resultados, são apontadas dificuldades relacionadas ao uso de instrumentos normativos de integração, com a ausência de ferramentas de suporte à decisão das distintas competências.

ABSTRACT The conservation of water resources deals with spatial plans, influencing territorial management tools at regional and local scale. This paper aimed to analyze the planning tools applied in Brazil, focusing on the Northern Coast of São Paulo. The methodology was based on the analysis on the articulation of laws: Política Nacional de Recursos Hídricos, Estatuto da Cidade, Plano de Bacia Hidrográfica, Zoneamento Ecológico-Econômico and Plano Diretor Municipal. As results, there are troubles in the laws interaction’s, with lack of decision support tools.

A Bacia Hidrográfica do Córrego Jararaca sofre impactos ambientais significativos decorrentes do uso e ocupação do solo inadequados em seu território. No Brasil, as áreas de preservação permanente são definidas e protegidas pelo Código Florestal, Lei Federal n°12.651, de 2012. Essas áreas estão localizadas nas margens de corpos d'água e em outros locais especificados pela referida lei. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi analisar os resultados das possíveis alternativas em função de distintos procedimentos utilizados para sua elaboração. A metodologia utilizada constitui na elaboração de um mapa de priorização para a recuperação dessas áreas, fazendo uso de Sistema de Informações Geográficas com análise multicriterial e comparando com as determinações do Plano de Bacia do Córrego Jararaca. Como resultado foram identificadas diferentes prioridades resultantes de procedimentos essencialmente técnicos daqueles procedimentos que incorporam a participação da sociedade.

The Jararaca River Basin suffers significative environmental impacts caused by inaccurate land use. In Brazil, the areas for permanent preservation are defined and protected by the 2012 Federal Law 12.651. These areas are located in the bank side and other specific places. The objective of this paper was to analyze the results of possible alternatives in function of different procedures used in the proposal elaboration. The methodology used was the elaboration of a priority map for the recovery of these areas using the Geographic Information System with multicriterial analyses and comparing it with the guidelines from the Jararaca River Basin Management Plan. As a result, there were identified differences in the priorities defined by technical issues from the priorities defined by public consultation process.
